We are wives and moms, who in our busy lives don't always cook the type of meals we want to. We decided to create this blog to help us get ideas from each other for what to cook. Some of us cook well, and others just try and get something on the table. Hopefully this blog will help all of us in our meal planning and save us some time in the kitchen.

Beef Satay with Sesame Ginger Sauce

This is a very simple recipe and very good! I have doubled or tripled the recipe easily for a main course. I found the sesame-ginger sauce in the Asian food aisle at HEB.

Ingredients (4 appetizer portions)

16 oz. beef tenderloin tips

2 Tbsp. soy sauce

1 Tbsp. lime juice

4 tbsp. sesame-ginger sauce (store bought)

1 Tbsp. sesame seeds

8 bamboo skewers

Marinate the beef tenderloin tips in the soy sauce, lime juice and sesame-ginger sauce for about 20 minutes covered in the refrigerator.

Thread the beef on the skewers and grill the beef satays over fire-grill until the desired doneness.

Drizzle the grilled beef satays with some more of the sesame-ginger sauce and sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds over them.
